Su blog es muy interesante y recibo sus correos cada semana, son un tesoro de conocimiento bíblico. Siento no poder leerlos todos pero los guardo para poder revisarlos con más tiempo, ya que me cuesta leer en inglés. ¿Cuándo sabremos más de precio y condiciones de su seminario en enero?
Please keep me informed of the specifics on this course entitled, ‘Introduction to Jewish Studies for Christians’ including any tuition and/or other costs, as I am not one of your students.
Thank you.
Well done this is very exciting! I have been enjoying our bible studies a lot. I look forward to hearing more about this course.
This sounds like a really great course. I just wish that I could afford to do it.

I think it is wonderful that we get more bang for our buck with ETeacher. I love that I am learning the language and also have opportunity to learn more about Jewish religion, culture, Israel, etc.
Sounds fabulous. Would love to participate.
Shalom. Siempre será de interés las relaciones que a raíz de la religión se hacen necesarios entre judíos y cristianos, pues mutuamente se guardan recelo, cuando al final estarán juntos pues uno es extensión del primero. ¿Cómo serán libradas las diferencias entre estos dos pueblos en un futuro no lejano?. Aguardamos sean fijadas las condiciones del Curso.
Sign me up! I’m definitely interested!
